There is a Thomas Bache b 1772-1776, married to Esther, lived in Coventry and buried Coventry 1843. Apparently died in London.
A wealthy businessman I think.

Yes that's the man. Quite wealthy!
Googling it looks as though a Thomas Bache had a Canal Company. Poss the same man.
I wonder if he would have had a silhouette made?

There is a marriage transcription on FMP between Ann Bache, daughter of John Bache, and Joseph Thomas Parkes which took place in Worfield, Shrophire on the 5th October 1848.

In the Hereford Journal (and several other papers) of the 18th October 1848
Oct. 5 at Worfield Church Salop, by the Rev. C. F. Broadbent, Vicar, Joseph Thomas Parkes Esq., second son of Major Parkes of Wentsland Cottage, Monmouthshire,to Ann, only daughter of the late John Bache Esq., of Wyken-house, Salop.
Ann had an organ and a memorial window dedicated to her in Worfield Church, after she died in 1874. There’s a fairly lengthy article about it in the Wellington Journal of the 19th August 1876.

I think that is Cliff (Cuff ?)House, Coventry Road.
1841 has Thomas Bache age 65, Independent, born Warwick with wife Esther age 50 born Warwick living 1 Cliff Houses Coventry Road St Nicholas Warwick. Page 10 Folio 22.
There is also an obituary but dated 25/2/1860 Leamington Spa Courier for Thomas Bache Esq wife Mrs Esther Bache also says death 1860?????? This could be a memorial though.

Yes. I had the names reversed.
But it wasn’t my fault. It was how FS had it listed. That’s my excuse anyway.

There are PCC wills for both John (1848) and his wife Ann Bache (1856). They are, of course, quite difficult to read but I skimmed through them in the hope that they may mention specific items (like silhouettes ) but I can't see any such reference. I did notice though, that John calls his daughter Ann's future husband, Joseph Thomas Parkes, (Joseph and Ann married later in 1848) his cousin, although that might be said in the loosest meaning of the word 'cousin'. Ann appears to have been an only child.
